I agree with that. Haven't seen any meter-use on historic architecture yet. The closest I'm aware of are the 5 or so "H-blocks" in Puma Punku which measure all around 1m, but each off by 1-2cm.
Krasniqi is saying the same, no ancient meter use. But they unit they used, the cubit, was based on the meter. That means the root, the meter is hidden, and only the derived units in practical use. Who created the cubit based on the meter is a separate question, but at least not the Egyptian public or Egyptian engineers.
About your drawing: Does it mean 1m = 1cubit + 1 megalitic yard? Or is the green cubit (Sun-Mercury) a different cubit than the yellow (Earth-Mars)?
